The Old Dairy at Tregenna Farm
This 2 bedroom property forms part of the listed small holding of Tregenna Farm, just outside of Portloe on the Roseland. It provides almost 100 square meters of floor space with some high ceilings and a light and bright feel. It’s the perfect getaway, featuring great amenities like a coffee machine, firepit and private BBQ. Please note that this property does not accept children under the age of 8.
Hillside Cottage
Hillside Cottage has been lovingly restored to its period glory and boasts sea views, two double bedrooms and a twin, two bathrooms and a wood burner. Sitting right next door to The Ship Inn, and just a stones throw from the sea, it’s a great holiday home. The property has central heating, superfast broadband, TV and a Sonos sound system as well as a small patio which enjoys sea views from a roadside garden bench.
Cliff Garden
Escape to the coast in a restored, Grade II listed, cottage in the heart of Portloe. The house has a warm, family feel and excellent accommodation for up to 6 people with all reception rooms and bedrooms enjoying views of the sea. As well as this, the garden features 2 stone terraces, and a decking area which looks right over the sea, historic harbour, and village.
Philleigh Way Cookery School Voucher (worth £150)
Philleigh Way is a cookery school based in South Cornwall, that also offers unique dining experiences. Bordering the river Fal, the balanced landscape of arable fields, pasture and ancient oak woodland is an inspirational place to learn about food and its provenance. The cookery school is run by brothers-in-law James Martin and chef George Pascoe who belongs to the fifth generation of Pascoes to hail from Court Farm, Philleigh, Cornwall. Classes & courses include: Pasties & Cream, Taste of Tuscany, Pizza Masterclasses and much more!
We will be adding even more amazing prizes in the coming weeks, so keep checking back!
How Much Have We Raised?
We’re thrilled to share that we’ve already raised over £400,000 - a remarkable show of support from residents, friends of Portloe, and supporters. This has enabled us to buy the pub, but now we need to renovate it and keep it running.
The History of The Ship Inn
The Ship Inn is a pub with an incredibly rich history, nestled in the heart of the small fishing village of Portloe, Cornwall.
Full of charm, friendly faces, and community spirit, walking into The Ship Inn is like stepping into the home of an old friend.
Recently, our Ship was at risk. So, a group of committed local residents have come together to ensure we don’t lose the beating heart of our community.
From this came the Save Our Ship campaign – and the formation of the Portloe Community Benefit Society Ltd, which has been established to purchase and manage The Ship Inn as a community-owned asset.
We began collecting pledges from friends of Portloe and those who call it home in April 2025, and through their incredible generosity, we were able to take an offer to St Austell Brewery, which they accepted! As we look to secure our future, we need more support through donations.
